This is the genetics and DNA kit that teaches the basics of trait inheritance, dominant and recessive genes, and DNA sequencing with 20 engaging, hands-on experiments. Young scientists will breed bacteria in the included Petri dishes to learn about genetic engineering, isolate the DNA from a tomato in a test tube, analyze DNA evidence to identify suspects and solve a fictitious crime, and assemble a model to see the double-stranded helical structure of DNA. The included 48-page booklet teaches how mutation affects genes and how scientists clone plants and animals and use DNA sequencing to reveal the order of nucleotides in DNA. Experiment tools include a pipette, funnel, safety goggles; some experiments require common household items (not included). Ages 10 and up. (1 1/2 lbs.)
